The son is also bringing the creditor to the door today
Chapter 85 Lavender
Before the end of the world, this old man was considered a big family. He lived on a farm, covered thousands of acres of land, and farmed mechanized. Comfortable, do not go to children's house to disturb.
The end of the world is approaching, and every family has run out of surplus food. The old man is kind-hearted, and he can't see the suffering of his neighbors in the past, so he takes out his own food and distributes it to everyone.
It doesn't matter once or twice, but the days are getting harder and harder. People keep coming to ask for food, but the old man won't give them, so they won't leave.
Later, the old man ran out of food, so the people who helped in the past searched the old man and took everything they could, leaving the old man alone to wipe tears while looking at the messy house.
The old man couldn't produce food, and the people on the farm were very dissatisfied with the old man. The old man wanted to plant the land, but no one came to help, so he just planted the seeds, and the so-called neighbors dug up the seeds the next day.
The old man could only carry a bamboo basket and go out to dig wild vegetables. He was hungry and full. The old man couldn't bear it. He passed out due to hypoglycemia, and the wild vegetables in the basket were also taken away. If he hadn't met Chi Mo and Every day, I am afraid that the old man will die here.
The farm where the old man lived should be the fifth small base mentioned by Taoist Yu. Chi Mo led the horse and entered the farm with the old man.
The location of the farm is not obvious, and there are few people. They are all hungry and thin, with no land to grow, and they have completely cut off their backs.
Chi Mo stayed in the old man's house temporarily, and together with Tian Tian, he helped the old man clean up the house and cooked a hot meal, which brought tears to his eyes.
With the help of Chi Mo, he reinstalled the door lock for the old man, opened up a small field in the yard, covered it with plastic film, and planted some vegetables.
In just one week, the old man also changed a lot, and he was refreshed. He said that Chi Mo was his nephew or a supernatural being.
The people on the farm were so hungry that they couldn't even speak clearly, and they didn't even have the strength to trouble the old man and Chi Mo again.
The old man hardened his heart this time, and no longer helped these white-eyed wolves. If he was hurt once and didn't have a long memory, he deserved it.
In the last days, people's hearts are cold, everyone wants to live, and if they want to live, they must be selfish and reveal their most shameless side.
Chi Mo and Tiantian finally lived a stable life. During the day, they took care of the space, told stories to Tiantian, and played games. The old man tidied up the vegetable garden and basked in the yard with his eyes squinted.
In the evening, Chi Mo and Tian Tian went out to let the horses out to improve their riding skills, and by the way taught Tian Tian how to ride a horse and identify various plants.
The days are extremely leisurely, Chi Mo has not been so relaxed for a long time, and occasionally in his free time, Chi Mo always thinks of the Qiyi Glacier, and Taoist Yu who has not come for a long time.
Autumn is gradually entering, and the temperature is getting cooler day by day. There is no coal in the old man's house, and the trees outside have been cut down to their roots.
Although Chi Mo has fire abilities, he can't use them as fuel to burn for a whole day.
The elderly and children couldn't stand the cold, and the merchants happened to be passing by. This group of merchants had already gone to the Northwest Base, and then walked west a few miles. Now they are hurrying back to the south.
The old man had dealt with the merchants before and had experience, so he took Chi Mo and Tiantian, who were masked, to find the merchants' residence in order to exchange some coal for the winter.
The merchant team is very large, and there are even special supernatural beings guarding it. The entire merchant residence is like a market, and there are many people who come to exchange, which is a rare lively scene.
The old man took Chi Mo and Tian Tian to stop in front of each tent.
The size of the tents varies, but the same thing is that there is a sign in front of each tent, with a few icons painted on it, and a strong man guards the outside of the tent, looking fierce and intimidating.
"Draw a circle and an oval in front of this tent, which means that daily necessities and medicines are sold inside." The old man explained to Chi Mo in a low voice.
"That sign has a paw print on it, which means there's a live animal for sale inside."
"And this, draw a hanger, it's for selling clothes, but don't buy them." The old man whispered: "Those clothes are usually taken from the dead, and in this day and age, only large bases can make clothes. "
"Then what does this mean?" Tiantian pointed to a big tent with a bone and a stone hanging in front of it.
"That's for buying people and minerals." The old man lowered his voice: "Because mining requires manpower, these people usually bring slaves to mine, and sell slaves while selling minerals, otherwise it is impossible to raise these slaves for nothing , otherwise you will suffer a lot.”
"The coal should be right here." The old man was about to enter the tent with Chi Mo and Tiantian, but was stopped by two men at the door.
"We don't do small business here." The big man was a head taller than the old man, with strong muscles and many scars, looking murderous.
The old man looked helplessly at Chi Mo, who took a step forward, and a peach appeared out of thin air in his hand, and he stuffed it into the big man.
"It turned out to be a spatial ability." The big man changed from his fierce look before, and his flesh shook with a smile: "I've offended you, go in quickly."
Chi Mo and the old man looked at each other, and the big man thoughtfully opened the tent door to let the three of them in.
A salty and wet smell rushed towards the face, with a faint smell of fish and rust.
There is a huge space in the tent, which is divided into two rows. On the left side are slaves in shackles and tied to iron bars, and on the right side are piles of various minerals.
The conditions of the slaves were extremely miserable, they were basically unkempt and skinny, even so, they only had a fig leaf on their bodies, which was picked up by the buyer for inspection without any dignity at all.
The female slave was also very naked, her body was covered with bruises, her sensitive parts were exposed, and her eyes were devoid of any look.
From time to time, salty pig hands come over and knead a few handfuls, and the slave can't resist, so he can only let it go.
The slave trader explained to the buyer, "This 23, has not given birth to a child yet, look at this face, it is still tender."
Chi Mo embraced Tiantian, not letting Tiantian see these filth.
"How to sell this coal." The old man had already walked to the coal pile.
"Three hundred points per ton." The businessman gestured: "This is the coal we pulled from the west, low in ash and low sulfur, and one ton can keep you warm in one winter."
"Three hundred points is too expensive." The old man bargained.
"It was dug out by several slaves who died. Including the slave's loss, three hundred can't be lower." The businessman waved his hand.
"One point is about a catty of grain. You have to go to the tent in front to exchange some cards, and then come over to trade." The old man introduced to Chi Mo.
Chi Mo took it out again, and together with the old man, went to exchange for general-purpose cards. The exchange points for fresh fruits and vegetables were relatively high, and food was a pound per catty. Chi Mo exchanged [-] points and planned to buy a few more tons of coal.
Coal is a non-renewable resource, and the population will only decrease. The current price is definitely a bargain, and it will only become more expensive as it goes on.
The three of them returned to the big tent to make a deal. Suddenly there was a man's scream. Chi Mo looked around and immediately became vigilant.
"Don't be nervous." The businessman smiled and waved his hand: "This is just a slave sold."
Chi Mo looked at the merchant in puzzlement.
"People with supernatural powers buy slaves and work at home. If there are female relatives at home, it will be very inconvenient, so we castrated them in advance, so that there will be no other troubles." The businessman naturally made a The posture of chopping, it seems that the victim is only some worthless animal, not his own kind.
Chi Mo silently handed in the cards while collecting the urea bags filled with coal. He kept looking in the direction of the slaves every day, with concern shining in his eyes.
"Daddy, let's save him." Tiantian grabbed Chi Mo's clothes and pointed to a corner.
Chi Mo frowned slightly, and the businessman immediately incited: "The little handsome guy is looking for a good one. He can work and is obedient. If you take it home, you will surely make a good profit."
Chi Mo shook his head, saying that he didn't need it.
"Think again, our slaves are well-trained and very obedient. If you tell him to go east, he dare not go west. Even if you beat him to death, he will not dare to resist." The businessman gestured a few times. Down, with a deep sense of fun in the smile.
"Daddy, buy him, okay?" Tian Tian shook Chi Mo's hand and began to act like a baby.
"Just buy one for the child. The price is not expensive. You can take it home with one or two hundred points. This slave can do it." The businessman sold it enthusiastically.
"Tiantian." Chi Mo squatted down, untied the mask on his face, so that the child could see his attitude clearly, and then persuaded the little guy in a gentle voice, "I know that Tiantian only asks for it because he sees them in pity. Daddy bought him. But even if we buy one, it won’t solve the suffering of all the slaves. What’s more, those who watch public service advertisements every day, if they don’t buy or sell, they won’t be killed. It’s all the same reason.”
He lowered his head hesitantly every day, and looked at the slave with some reluctance. Chi Mo saw that the persuasion was effective, covered his face again, and got up to collect the coal.
The humming sound came from nowhere, it was a melodious and sad tune, and the old man couldn't help humming along, with longing in his eyes.
"What song is this?" Tian Tian asked the old man, "Why are you so unhappy, Grandpa?"
"Oh." The old man sighed: "This is the last time my daughter came back to see me, she hummed and sang it. Didn't she settle in France? This song seems to be a folk song there. She hummed it, and I remember it all. down."
"This tone is so sad." Tian Tian was a little depressed.
"This seems to be pussy..." The old man rubbed his head.
"Provence." Chi Mo put away the coal, and continued, "It's about a girl who fell in love with an injured young man who came from afar. After the two fell in love, they were opposed by their family members. The youth left, and the retention of relatives was of no avail.
The old lady in the village gave the girl a bouquet of lavender, saying that it could reveal the unclean things, and asked the girl to test the sincerity of the young man with lavender.
When the young man took the girl's hand and was about to leave, the girl threw lavender at the young man, and the young man turned into a purple cloud and disappeared, leaving the young girl alone. "
"What happened in the end? Is the girl with the person she likes?" Tian Tian couldn't wait to ask.
The end of the world is approaching, and every family has run out of surplus food. The old man is kind-hearted, and he can't see the suffering of his neighbors in the past, so he takes out his own food and distributes it to everyone.
